Special Project #3 for Extra Credit A large man and a small boy stand facing each other on frictionless ice. They put their hands together and push against each other so that they move apart. a) Who moves away with the higher speed, by how much and why? b) Who moves farther in the same elapsed time, by how much and why? Derive the formulae for the two problems above in much more detail and explain your logic in a greater detail than what is in pages 7 and 8 of this lecture note. Be sure to clearly define each variable used in your derivation. Each problem is 10 points. Due is this Wednesday, Feb. 27 Monday, Feb. 25, 2013 PHYS 1441-002, Spring 2013 Dr. Jaehoon Yu

Applications of Newton’s Laws Suppose you are pulling a box on frictionless ice, using a rope. What are the forces being exerted on the box? M T Gravitational force: Fg n= -Fg Normal force: n Free-body diagram T Tension force: T Fg=-Mg Total vector force: F=Fg+n+T=T n= -Fg Fg= -Mg T If T is a constant force, ax, is constant Monday, Feb. 25, 2013 PHYS 1441-002, Spring 2013 Dr. Jaehoon Yu What happened to the motion in y-direction?

Example for Using Newton’s Laws A traffic light weighing 125 N hangs from a cable tied to two other cables fastened to a support. The upper cables make angles of 37.0o and 53.0o with the horizontal. Find the tension in the three cables. x y 53o 37o T1 37o T2 53o Free-body Diagram T3 Newton’s 2nd law x-comp. of net force y-comp. of net force Monday, Feb. 25, 2013 PHYS 1441-002, Spring 2013 Dr. Jaehoon Yu

PHYS 1441-002, Spring 2013 Dr. Jaehoon Yu Example w/o Friction A crate of mass M is placed on a frictionless inclined plane of angle θ. a) Determine the acceleration of the crate after it is released. x y x y x y n M a n Fg d Free-body Diagram F= -Mg θ θ Supposed the crate was released at the top of the incline, and the length of the incline is d. How long does it take for the crate to reach the bottom and what is its speed at the bottom? Monday, Feb. 25, 2013 PHYS 1441-002, Spring 2013 Dr. Jaehoon Yu

PHYS 1441-002, Spring 2013 Dr. Jaehoon Yu Force of Friction Resistive force exerted on a moving object due to viscosity or other types frictional property of the medium in or surface on which the object moves. These forces are either proportional to the velocity or the normal force. The resistive force exerted on the object until just before the beginning of its movement Force of static friction, fs: Empirical Formula What does this formula tell you? Frictional force increases till it reaches the limit!! Beyond the limit, the object moves, and there is NO MORE static friction but kinetic friction takes it over. Force of kinetic friction, fk The resistive force exerted on the object during its movement Which direction does kinetic friction apply? Opposite to the motion!

PHYS 1441-002, Spring 2013 Dr. Jaehoon Yu Example w/ Friction Suppose a block is placed on a rough surface inclined relative to the horizontal. The inclination angle is increased till the block starts to move. Show that by measuring this critical angle, θc, one can determine coefficient of static friction, ms. x y x y n Free-body Diagram M a n Fg fs=mkn F= -Mg θ θ Net force x comp. y comp.
